Explanation:

• Produced on a plant, cotton is a member of the  Hibiscus family and is botanically known as Gossypium hirsutum.

• By nature it is a perennial shrub that reaches a  height of 3.5 meters. Commercially it is grown as  an annual and only reaches a height of 1.2 meters.

• The most common type of cotton grown in Australia  is Gossypium hirsutum, more commonly known as  American Upland.

• It is a leafy, green shrub that  briefly has cream and pink flowers that become the  ‘fruit’ or cotton bolls.

• These green, immature bolls are a segmented pod containing approximately 32 immature seeds from which the cotton fibers will grow.

• The boll is considered a fruit because it contains seeds.
